Why really, Alcarillo. Are you saying the princess of Gondolin, the woman who fought Maeglin "like a tigress" on the battlements of the burning city, is just part and parcel of the inheritance, a passive flower ripe for the picking? That she has no free will or choice of her own?
Pshaw. Idril Celebrindal will fall in love with and marry Tuor no matter who is king.
